Vegetable Chicken Vermicelli. Delicious, simple and ready in 30 minutes. So flavourful and perfect for dinner or for lunch as leftovers.
The taste of the veggies with the thin noodles and the juicy chicken is one combination I love so much.
My grandma used to make this dish for me and I loved her vegetable chicken vermicelli stir fry. I had to share it here on my blog! It's a staple for me and was one growing up. I just love thin rice vermicelli so much. The texture is one of my favourites!
This vegetable chicken vermicelli stir fry recipe is pretty simple to make. It just requires some slicing and dicing time. As for the noodles, you only need to soak them in hot water for 5-7 minutes until they've loosened.

For this Recipe
You will need the following ingredients for my veggie chicken vermicelli recipe:
- 250 g of vermicelli rice noodles (dry version)
- 4 celery stalks, sliced into matchstick
- 1 carrot, peeled into thin pieces
- 3 stalks of green onion, sliced into matchsticks
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 3 garlic cloves, sliced
- 3 boneless skinless chicken thighs, sliced
- 2 tsp of corn starch
- 4 tbsp of avocado oil for frying
Noodle Sauce:
- 1 tbsp of cane sugar
- 4 tbsp of water
- 4 tbsp of organic light soy sauce
How to make homemade chicken vermicelli with veggies
- Before frying, pre-soak vermicelli noodles in a large bowl filled with hot water for 5-7 minutes until soft but not soggy.
- Meanwhile, in a medium size bowl mix the chicken with cornstarch to tenderize the meat. In small bowl, combine soy sauce, cane sugar and water stirring until sugar is dissolved.
- In a wok set on high heat, add your avocado oil and garlic cloves. Slow fry garlic until fragrant. Next add in sliced vegetables and fry until soft, about 3-5 minutes. Remove from pan and set aside.
- Lower heat to medium. Add the chicken slices and green onions into your wok. Fry chicken until about halfway cooked. Lightly season with salt. Remove from wok and set aside.
- Add fried vegetables back into the wok, followed by the chicken with green onions and vermicelli. Mix altogether. Then pour the noodle sauce over the noodles and mix until noodles are evenly coated in sauce. Serve and enjoy!
Notes
Cook's Note: If the noodles are too difficult to move in your wok, use a pair of clean scissors to snip them into smaller pieces for easier frying.
Tips for Making this veggie chicken vermicelli dish
- As mentioned before, only soak your dry noodles for 5-7 minutes in hot water. You don't want to ever boil your noodles because when you cook them again in the frying pan, they will turn soggy and stick to the pan.
- Use a non-stick pan to make these. The rice noodles are starchy and will stick if you don't oil your pan enough.
- Always cut your veggies and protein into long thin bite size pieces. Matchsticks for veggies and thin slices for meat. This makes it easier for the ingredients to incorporate
